“Our finance department is mad at me for stealing him, but the rest of our organization is throwing a party that Tyler will be diving in deep with each of them,” says Loba. “It takes a special person to keep up with my crazy ideas and schedule. Tyler stepped right in from day one and is already crushing it.”
